Want to hear one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands? Check out this video of our church's band leading worship at Advance '09. (How I wish I could've been there!)

This song, a remake of Isaac Watts's "Absent From Flesh," actually isn't on Sojourn's latest CD, Over The Grave, so enjoy it online while you can. It's one of my favorites. Here are the lyrics Watts penned about that day when our sinful flesh will no longer hinder us:

Absent from flesh! O blissful thought!What unknown joys this moment brings!Freed from the mischiefs sin has brought,From pains, and fears, and all their springs.
